------------------------------------------------
+1 on patch. Splits can be some what more faster now I think after this goes
in.
> Avoid Splits from once again opening a closed reader for fetching the first
> and last key

> Currently split flow is such that we close the parent region and all its
> store file readers are also closed. After that inorder to split the
> reference files we need the first and last keys for which once again open the
> readers on those store files. This could be costlier operation considering
> the fact that it has to contact the HDFS for this close and open operation.
> This JIRA is to see if we can improve this.
